    摘要: A part fastening structure fastens a part, using a bolt and a nut. The bolt includes a first spiral groove, a second spiral groove provided on a tip end side of the bolt with respect to the first spiral groove, a slit extending from a tip end of the bolt to the first spiral groove through the second spiral groove, and a loosening suppression groove extending from another end of the second spiral groove to the tip end side. The nut includes: a first nut member including a first pin protruding toward a central axis side and inserted into the first spiral groove; a second nut member including a second pin protruding toward the central axis side and inserted into the second spiral groove; and an urging member disposed between the first and second nut members and that urges the first nut member toward a head portion of the bolt.

    摘要: A retention device for supporting a component relative to a wall of a home appliance is provided. The retention device includes a backing nut and a core piece that can be installed from a single side of the wall. The backing nut defines a central bore and includes a threaded surface. The core piece includes a body having a threaded portion configured to mate with the threaded surface of the backing nut and at least one flange projecting outwardly from a body of the core piece. The core piece is configured to be inserted into an aperture in the wall and rotated to engage the at least one flange with the wall.

    摘要: A removable module and a housing for an attachment system of a consumer product is described. The removable module includes a locking mechanism comprising a first portion having a substantially planar top surface and second portion that comprises a substantially non-planar bottom surface. The first portion and the second portion are coupled together. The locking mechanism also includes a first spring mechanism coupled between the first portion and the second portion. The first spring mechanism causes the first portion to be biased away from the second portion. The locking mechanism also includes a second spring mechanism. The second spring mechanism causes the substantially planar top surface of the first portion to be biased substantially flush with respect to the removable module and also causes the substantially non-planar bottom surface of the second portion to be biased proud with respect to the removable module.

    摘要: A through bolted connection hardware includes a bolt having an at least partially threaded shaft and a head. At least one nut connector defines a shaft hole and a head hole that is coaxial with the shaft hole, and the shaft hole is sized to receive the shaft of the bolt and not to allow the head to fit through the shaft hole. An outer surface of the at least one nut connector has a hexagonal shape. A tube defines an axially extending threaded bore that is configured to matingly receive the shaft at a first end of the threaded bore.

    摘要: A fastener for securing a first object to a second object includes a push member, a rigid shaft, an engaging member, a biasing member, and an anchor. The push member and the anchor are fixed to opposite ends of the rigid shaft. The engaging member is slideably coupled to the rigid shaft between the push member and the anchor. The biasing member is disposed between the push member and the engaging member to urge the engaging member toward the anchor. In a particular embodiment, the anchor is deployable.

    摘要: A device, system and method to connect a receiving member and a connecting device with a pin such that an asymmetrical configuration after the alignment of the connecting member and the receiving member does not give rise to asymmetrical glue distribution, nor asymmetrical shrinking nor curing drift. The receiving member has a receiving planar surface with at least one opening, and the connecting device has a main body with a contact plane, the main body having at least one opening where the connecting device is placed with the contact plane towards the receiving planar surface so that the at least one opening of the connecting device overlaps the at least one opening of the receiving surface, and the pin is inserted into the overlap. The system having a device for exerting a force between the contact plane of the connecting device and the receiving planar surface of the receiving member.

    摘要: A rapid mount wall anchoring/power delivery system to both mount electrical devices and deliver power to the devices through a series of mateable connectors. The wall anchoring system includes a rigid frame with a lip having an opening therein, a rearward extending sidewall surrounding the opening, rearwardly extending guide members extending rearward from the sidewalls, a rigid mounting plate within the opening, and means to secure the wall anchoring system to a wall. The rigid mounting plate is snap fit into the opening of the rigid frame and the mounting plate includes a second opening for the mateable connection of a power delivery connector assembly. The connector assembly includes at one end a generally L shaped connector that is preferably overmolded, the connector includes gripping means to facilitate mounting of the connector to the mounting plate second opening. The connector includes an end lip with a width wide enough to ensure a tight fit that is still capable of slidable engagement into the mounting plate second opening.

    摘要: A wiper connector arranged to a bolt-type wiper arm includes a sleeve tube, a fastening member and a tube body. The sleeve tube has a tube body, a first and a second flange. The first flange defines a receiving compartment therein. The fastening member has a circular ring body and a plurality of abutting portions, and is fixed within the receiving compartment of the sleeve tube. The bolt is inserted into the fastening member. The circumferential portion of the bolt is tightly engaged by the plurality of abutting portions. The base has a clutching trough, a first and a second restricting trough. The first and the second flanges of the sleeve tube are received respectively in the first and the second restricting troughs, and the tube body is secured in the clutching trough. The instant disclosure further provides a bolt-stabilizing sleeve adaptor.
